Egg Retreival This morning!

Well, we did it- the first big step is done. I had my egg retrieval this morning, they got 14 eggs, so we were very happy with that. This morning was HORRIBLE, I was in the worst pain- thank God they got all those eggs out. Our doctor said that so far all the eggs looked good so far. I don't have the official fert report, I get that tomorrow.

As far as the pain, all I can take is Tylenol, which sucks! Because I am dying for a Perocet, but Tylenol it is. The pain is getting better as the day progresses- but I am still quite uncomfortable.

So the countdown is on for the fert report tomorrow- I am hoping and praying that everything is mature and was fertilized and we have lots of growing embabies.

IUI #1 Complete!

Well we completed our first, and hopefully only IUI this morning. John turned in his best sperm count ever! The doctor was thrilled, its almost like he has no sperm issues anymore. I guess his vitamin cocktail has been working!

The procedure itself hurt a little, but I was able to drive home without any problems. But I was in for a shock about 2 hours later. I developed the worst cramps. I could barely walk, I was in tears. I have never in my life had such bad cramps. I called the doctor and they told me to drink lots of water and take some Tylenol. I did and a few hours later I was feeling much better.

So, I am so happy that I stayed home today, I cannot imagine having to have worked today, I would have been miserable. So I am still relaxing this evening, I am tired and looking forward to a good nights sleep.
